Sorti au début du mois en Angleterre, enfin reçu hier !

Comme d'habitude avec les ouvrages en VO, le livre lui-même est splendide.

Les scans de couv type Amazon ne lui rendent pas honneur, c'est dommage. J'espère pouvoir le commence ce week-end. Evidemment, c'est présenté comme
la sensation de l'année dans le genre, j'ai même vu passer des commentaires du genre "Pullman pour adultes", ce qui ne signifie pas grand chose pour moi, mais bon, il faut bien assurer la promo. ;)Le résumé du rabas de couv :
Two orphans on the run, each with the power to save the world ... When streetwise Molly Templar witnesses a brutal murder at the brothel she has recently been apprenticed to, her first instinct is to run back to the poorhouse where she grew up. But there she finds her fellow orphans butchered, and it slowly dawns on her that she was the real target of the attack. For Molly carries a secret deep in her blood, a secret that marks her out for destruction by enemies of the state. Oliver brooks has led a sheltered existence in the backwater home of his merchant uncle. But when he is framed for his only relative's murder he is forced to flee for his life, accompanied by a agent of the mysterious Court of the Air. Chased across the country, Oliver finds himself in the company of thieves, outlaws and spies, and gradually learns more about the secret that has blighted his life. Soon Molly and Oliver will find themselves battling a grave threat to civilisation, an ancient power thought to have been quelled millennia ago. Their enemies are ruthless and myriad, but the two orphans are also aided by indomitable friends in this endlessly inventive tale full of drama, intrigue and adventure.
